/* Signal disposition */ + int sv_mask; /* Signals to be blocked in handler */ + int sv_flags; /* Flags */ +}; +.EE +.in +.P +The +.I sv_handler +field specifies the disposition of the signal, and is either: +the address of a signal handler function; +.BR SIG_DFL , +meaning the default disposition applies for the signal; or +.BR SIG_IGN , +meaning that the signal is ignored. +.P +If +.I sv_handler +specifies the address of a signal handler, then +.I sv_mask +specifies a mask of signals that are to be blocked while +the handler is executing. +In addition, the signal for which the handler is invoked is +also blocked. +Attempts to block +.B SIGKILL +or +.B SIGSTOP +are silently ignored. +.P +If +.I sv_handler +specifies the address of a signal handler, then the +.I sv_flags +field specifies flags controlling what happens when the handler is called. +This field may contain zero or more of the following flags: +.TP +.B SV_INTERRUPT +If the signal handler interrupts a blocking system call, +then upon return from the handler the system call is not restarted: +instead it fails with the error +.BR EINTR . +If this flag is not specified, then system calls are restarted +by default. +.TP +.B SV_RESETHAND +Reset the disposition of the signal to the default +before calling the signal handler. +If this flag is not specified, then the handler remains established +until explicitly removed by a later call to +.BR sigvec () +or until the process performs an +.BR execve (2). +.TP +.B SV_ONSTACK +Handle the signal on the alternate signal stack +(historically established under BSD using the obsolete +.BR sigstack () +function; the POSIX replacement is +.BR sigaltstack (2)). +.P +The +.BR sigmask () +macro constructs and returns a "signal mask" for +.IR signum . +For example, we can initialize the +.I vec.sv_mask +field given to +.BR sigvec () +using code such as the following: +.P +.in +4n +.EX +vec.sv_mask = sigmask(SIGQUIT) | sigmask(SIGABRT); + /* Block SIGQUIT and SIGABRT during + handler execution */ +.EE +.in +.P +The +.BR sigblock () +function adds the signals in +.I mask +to the process's signal mask +(like POSIX +.IR sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK) ), +and returns the process's previous signal mask. +Attempts to block +.B SIGKILL +or +.B SIGSTOP +are silently ignored. +.P +The +.BR sigsetmask () +function sets the process's signal mask to the value given in +.I mask +(like POSIX +.IR sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK) ), +and returns the process's previous signal mask. +.P +The +.BR siggetmask () +function returns the process's current signal mask. +This call is equivalent to +.IR sigblock(0) . +.SH RETURN VALUE +The +.BR sigvec () +function returns 0 on success; on error, it returns \-1 and sets +.I errno +to indicate the error. +.P +The +.BR sigblock () +and +.BR sigsetmask () +functions return the previous signal mask. +.P +The +.BR sigmask () +macro returns the signal mask for +.IR signum . +.SH ERRORS +See the ERRORS under +.BR sigaction (2) +and +.BR sigprocmask (2). +.SH ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.TS +allbox;
